In the 'spirit' of the book. I'd like to ask everyone their favorite cocktails. I'm going out with friends this weekend to celebrate end of school and as a cocktail girlie, I'll be venturing your cocktails. My favorite cocktail is Wengweng

This book was very well written and had some beautiful lines. That said, I think I would have preferred actually reading the book instead of the audiobook because it was kind of hard to tell when Chih or Rabbit was speaking. I enjoyed the story, but generally I found it pretty predictable. This book was also the perfect length for the plot.

Iâm enjoying this but the audiobook is definitely a little hard to follow. Thereâs no warning when it jumps between timelines.

trying to get into audiobooks- where does everyone get their audiobooks for free? (I do have a Spotify subscription but I've had to request access which is taking an age)

I really enjoyed this book! The vibes were impeccable and I was quickly pulled into the story. I'm always a sucker for fairy tale twists and retellings, so it's kind of shocking to me how long I let this sit on my shelf untouched - I can already imagine myself rereading this. There were a few twists (especially near the end) that I absolutely didn't see coming, but I was able to adapt pretty easily. There were a few moments in the narration when Liliwen contradicted something I thought we already knew, but it didn't take me out of the story. I definitely recommend listening to the audiobook.

Hi Boundlings đ±
I've been looking far and wide for books that have characters with a father and daughter dynamic who aren't actually related. I'm thinking Joel and Ellie from The Last of Us or Gustave and Maelle from Expedition 33 đ„čđ«¶
Two characters that found one another and are sticking together as friends, as father and daughter, as found family.
It doesn't have to be the main focus of the book, just part of the characters đ«¶ Unfortunately, I find litfic quite boring đ so I am looking for fantasy, sci-fi, mystery or horror but I would check out litfic at this point as well. If anyone has a recommendation I'd love to hear it! đ„°
